BiggerPockets Real Estate Podcast
Business:Investing
Can’t invest in your own backyard? Out-of-state investing is the way to go! With it, you can invest nationwide, finding more cash flow or appreciation potential than you would in your local area. But managing a rental property portfolio from hundreds, if not thousands of miles away, isn’t always easy. Thankfully, we’ve got two time-tested out-of-state investors with six killer tips to share on making your next long-distance investment as profitable and painless as possible.
Whether you’re buying short-term rentals, long-term rentals, or something in between, these tips can help ANYONE find financial freedom faster, deal with fewer tenant headaches, and save a ton on future maintenance bills. The best part? You don’t have to check in on your property every other week to ensure it’s safe and sound, but you will need local help if you’re trying to take your investment to the next level. What exactly do we mean? Stick around; we’re walking through all the top tips you need to know.
Want more tips for out-of-state investing? Pick up David’s book, Long-Distance Real Estate Investing!
